[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 1984622, member: 100742"] I am also learning a lot after 44 years of reloading. I Hunt, but also shoot bench rest. I measure all my [B]Jam or Jump from the Ogive of each bullet. [/B] Careful notes in a ledger for rifle and bullet /powder and Primer , is a must for me. The Jam or Jump you select will , of course , change from Bullet to Bullet. I need to shoot three shot groups for each change of COAL and OGIVE length. That tells me if any change I made actually matters. Even though Score Shooting is just One shot only in to one bulls eye . 10 times . I use a Completely Stock( Club Rules no Mods on the rifle for this game ) [B]Medium Heavy Barrel Savage 110 in .308 for this "Score[/B] [B]Shooting"Game. [/B] I will shoot [B]110 Grn Hornaday [/B] with a completely different COAL and OGIVE Length than the when I use the more tapered[B] 115 Grn Berger Flat base Target Bullets. [/B]These are all being shot single shot. I have never used the magazine. All the loads regardless of bullet, are seated out to about 2/1000 to 5/1000 under touching lands and grooves , as measured from the Ogive, with my Hornady tools. I am sure they are all way to long to function in the magazine. I am making progress. [/QUOTE]
